Dynamic Portfolio Optimization via Augmented DDPG with Quantum Price Levels-Based Trading Strategy
Venue: arXiv cs.CE 2025
Year: 2025

With the development of deep learning, Dynamic Portfolio Optimization (DPO) problem has received a lot of attention in recent years, not only in the field of finance but also in the field of deep learning. Some advanced research in recent years has proposed the application of Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) to the DPO problem, which demonstrated to be more advantageous than supervised learning in solving the DPO problem. However, there are still certain unsolved issues: 1) DRL algorithms usually have the problems of slow learning speed and high sample complexity, which is especially problematic when dealing with complex financial data. 2) researchers use DRL simply for the purpose of obtaining high returns, but pay little attention to the problem of risk control and trading strategy, which will affect the stability of model returns. In order to address these issues, in this study we revamped the intrinsic structure of the model based on the Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (DDPG) and proposed the Augmented DDPG model. Besides, we also proposed an innovative risk control strategy based on Quantum Price Levels (QPLs) derived from Quantum Finance Theory (QFT). Our experimental results revealed that our model has better profitability as well as risk control ability with less sample complexity in the DPO problem compared to the baseline models.
A Multilevel Network-assisted Congestion Feedback Mechanism for Network Congestion Control
Venue: arXiv cs.NI 2025
Year: 2025

Network-assisted congestion control leveraging Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) is an effective way to deal with congestion issues on the Internet. However, we believe that the existing ECN mechanism in the TCP/IP protocol stack may require further optimization to effectively address the evolving congestion challenges introduced by emerging technologies like immersive AR/VR applications and the burgeoning field of the Internet of Things (IoT). To that end, we propose a multilevel congestion notification mechanism called Enhanced ECN (EECN) that leverages the existing two ECN bits in the IP header to notify two levels of congestion in the network and uses the corresponding two bits in the TCP header to negotiate EECN during the handshake and echo congestion experienced back to the sender. Additionally, we propose a congestion control mechanism that triggers different congestion control responses based on the average RTT and multilevel congestion feedback received from the network, which yields promising results, highlighting the effectiveness of utilizing multilevel congestion feedback. The proposed EECN mechanism reduces packet drop by 70% compared to ECN, by 95% compared to TCP New Reno without ECN, and by 40% compared to VCP. The packets marked are reduced by 96% compared to ECN and 76% compared to VCP. Furthermore, the proposed approach reduces flow completion time by 61% compared to ECN and enhances the throughput of short-lived network flows, which are particularly pronounced in IoT environments.
Reinforcement Learning-Enhanced Procedural Generation for Dynamic Narrative-Driven AR Experiences
Venue: arXiv cs.AI 2025
Year: 2025

Procedural Content Generation (PCG) is widely used to create scalable and diverse environments in games. However, existing methods, such as the Wave Function Collapse (WFC) algorithm, are often limited to static scenarios and lack the adaptability required for dynamic, narrative-driven applications, particularly in augmented reality (AR) games. This paper presents a reinforcement learning-enhanced WFC framework designed for mobile AR environments. By integrating environment-specific rules and dynamic tile weight adjustments informed by reinforcement learning (RL), the proposed method generates maps that are both contextually coherent and responsive to gameplay needs. Comparative evaluations and user studies demonstrate that the framework achieves superior map quality and delivers immersive experiences, making it well-suited for narrative-driven AR games. Additionally, the method holds promise for broader applications in education, simulation training, and immersive extended reality (XR) experiences, where dynamic and adaptive environments are critical.
Towards Lightweight and Stable Zero-shot TTS with Self-distilled Representation Disentanglement
Venue: arXiv cs.SD 2025
Year: 2025

Zero-shot Text-To-Speech (TTS) synthesis shows great promise for personalized voice customization through voice cloning. However, current methods for achieving zero-shot TTS heavily rely on large model scales and extensive training datasets to ensure satisfactory performance and generalizability across various speakers. This raises concerns regarding both deployment costs and data security. In this paper, we present a lightweight and stable zero-shot TTS system. We introduce a novel TTS architecture designed to effectively model linguistic content and various speaker attributes from source speech and prompt speech, respectively. Furthermore, we present a two-stage self-distillation framework that constructs parallel data pairs for effectively disentangling linguistic content and speakers from the perspective of training data. Extensive experiments show that our system exhibits excellent performance and superior stability on the zero-shot TTS tasks. Moreover, it shows markedly superior computational efficiency, with RTFs of 0.13 and 0.012 on the CPU and GPU, respectively.
Dynamic Knowledge Integration for Enhanced Vision-Language Reasoning
Venue: arXiv cs.CL 2025
Year: 2025

Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) have demonstrated impressive capabilities in multimodal tasks, but their performance is often constrained by the lack of external knowledge integration, limiting their ability to handle knowledge-intensive tasks such as visual question answering and reasoning. To address this challenge, we propose a novel method, Adaptive Knowledge-Guided Pretraining for Large Vision-Language Models (AKGP-LVLM), which dynamically incorporates structured and unstructured knowledge into LVLMs during pretraining and fine-tuning. Our approach employs a knowledge encoder to represent external knowledge, a retrieval mechanism to select task-relevant information, and a dynamic adaptor to align multimodal and knowledge representations effectively. We evaluate our method on four benchmark datasets, demonstrating significant performance improvements over state-of-the-art models. Furthermore, human evaluations highlight the superior correctness and relevance of our model's outputs. Extensive analyses confirm the robustness, efficiency, and scalability of AKGP-LVLM, making it a compelling solution for real-world knowledge-intensive tasks.
Watermarking in Diffusion Model: Gaussian Shading with Exact Diffusion Inversion via Coupled Transformations (EDICT)
Venue: arXiv cs.CV 2025
Year: 2025

This paper introduces a novel approach to enhance the performance of Gaussian Shading, a prevalent watermarking technique, by integrating the Exact Diffusion Inversion via Coupled Transformations (EDICT) framework. While Gaussian Shading traditionally embeds watermarks in a noise latent space, followed by iterative denoising for image generation and noise addition for watermark recovery, its inversion process is not exact, leading to potential watermark distortion. We propose to leverage EDICT's ability to derive exact inverse mappings to refine this process. Our method involves duplicating the watermark-infused noisy latent and employing a reciprocal, alternating denoising and noising scheme between the two latents, facilitated by EDICT. This allows for a more precise reconstruction of both the image and the embedded watermark. Empirical evaluation on standard datasets demonstrates that our integrated approach yields a slight, yet statistically significant improvement in watermark recovery fidelity. These results highlight the potential of EDICT to enhance existing diffusion-based watermarking techniques by providing a more accurate and robust inversion mechanism. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work to explore the synergy between EDICT and Gaussian Shading for digital watermarking, opening new avenues for research in robust and high-fidelity watermark embedding and extraction.
Multi-view Correlation-aware Network Traffic Detection on Flow Hypergraph
Venue: arXiv cs.CR 2025
Year: 2025

As the Internet rapidly expands, the increasing complexity and diversity of network activities pose significant challenges to effective network governance and security regulation. Network traffic, which serves as a crucial data carrier of network activities, has become indispensable in this process. Network traffic detection aims to monitor, analyze, and evaluate the data flows transmitted across the network to ensure network security and optimize performance. However, existing network traffic detection methods generally suffer from several limitations: 1) a narrow focus on characterizing traffic features from a single perspective; 2) insufficient exploration of discriminative features for different traffic; 3) poor generalization to different traffic scenarios. To address these issues, we propose a multi-view correlation-aware framework named FlowID for network traffic detection. FlowID captures multi-view traffic features via temporal and interaction awareness, while a hypergraph encoder further explores higher-order relationships between flows. To overcome the challenges of data imbalance and label scarcity, we design a dual-contrastive proxy task, enhancing the framework's ability to differentiate between various traffic flows through traffic-to-traffic and group-to-group contrast. Extensive experiments on five real-world datasets demonstrate that FlowID significantly outperforms existing methods in accuracy, robustness, and generalization across diverse network scenarios, particularly in detecting malicious traffic.
ViBidirectionMT-Eval: Machine Translation for Vietnamese-Chinese and Vietnamese-Lao language pair
Venue: arXiv cs.CL 2025
Year: 2025

This paper presents an results of the VLSP 2022-2023 Machine Translation Shared Tasks, focusing on Vietnamese-Chinese and Vietnamese-Lao machine translation. The tasks were organized as part of the 9th, 10th annual workshop on Vietnamese Language and Speech Processing (VLSP 2022, VLSP 2023). The objective of the shared task was to build machine translation systems, specifically targeting Vietnamese-Chinese and Vietnamese-Lao translation (corresponding to 4 translation directions). The submission were evaluated on 1,000 pairs for testing (news and general domains) using established metrics like BLEU [11] and SacreBLEU [12]. Additionally, system outputs also were evaluated with human judgment provided by experts in Chinese and Lao languages. These human assessments played a crucial role in ranking the performance of the machine translation models, ensuring a more comprehensive evaluation.
A Learning Algorithm That Attains the Human Optimum in a Repeated Human-Machine Interaction Game
Venue: arXiv cs.GT 2025
Year: 2025

When humans interact with learning-based control systems, a common goal is to minimize a cost function known only to the human. For instance, an exoskeleton may adapt its assistance in an effort to minimize the human's metabolic cost-of-transport. Conventional approaches to synthesizing the learning algorithm solve an inverse problem to infer the human's cost. However, these problems can be ill-posed, hard to solve, or sensitive to problem data. Here we show a game-theoretic learning algorithm that works solely by observing human actions to find the cost minimum, avoiding the need to solve an inverse problem. We evaluate the performance of our algorithm in an extensive set of human subjects experiments, demonstrating consistent convergence to the minimum of a prescribed human cost function in scalar and multidimensional instantiations of the game. We conclude by outlining future directions for theoretical and empirical extensions of our results.
Transformer-based Multivariate Time Series Anomaly Localization
Venue: arXiv cs.LG 2025
Year: 2025

With the growing complexity of Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) and the integration of Internet of Things (IoT), the use of sensors for online monitoring generates large volume of multivariate time series (MTS) data. Consequently, the need for robust anomaly diagnosis in MTS is paramount to maintaining system reliability and safety. While significant advancements have been made in anomaly detection, localization remains a largely underexplored area, though crucial for intelligent decision-making. This paper introduces a novel transformer-based model for unsupervised anomaly diagnosis in MTS, with a focus on improving localization performance, through an in-depth analysis of the self-attention mechanism's learning behavior under both normal and anomalous conditions. We formulate the anomaly localization problem as a three-stage process: time-step, window, and segment-based. This leads to the development of the Space-Time Anomaly Score (STAS), a new metric inspired by the connection between transformer latent representations and space-time statistical models. STAS is designed to capture individual anomaly behaviors and inter-series dependencies, delivering enhanced localization performance. Additionally, the Statistical Feature Anomaly Score (SFAS) complements STAS by analyzing statistical features around anomalies, with their combination helping to reduce false alarms. Experiments on real world and synthetic datasets illustrate the model's superiority over state-of-the-art methods in both detection and localization tasks.
MonSter++: Unified Stereo Matching, Multi-view Stereo, and Real-time Stereo with Monodepth Priors
Venue: arXiv cs.CV 2025
Year: 2025

We introduce MonSter++, a geometric foundation model for multi-view depth estimation, unifying rectified stereo matching and unrectified multi-view stereo. Both tasks fundamentally recover metric depth from correspondence search and consequently face the same dilemma: struggling to handle ill-posed regions with limited matching cues. To address this, we propose MonSter++, a novel method that integrates monocular depth priors into multi-view depth estimation, effectively combining the complementary strengths of single-view and multi-view cues. MonSter++ fuses monocular depth and multi-view depth into a dual-branched architecture. Confidence-based guidance adaptively selects reliable multi-view cues to correct scale ambiguity in monocular depth. The refined monocular predictions, in turn, effectively guide multi-view estimation in ill-posed regions. This iterative mutual enhancement enables MonSter++ to evolve coarse object-level monocular priors into fine-grained, pixel-level geometry, fully unlocking the potential of multi-view depth estimation. MonSter++ achieves new state-of-the-art on both stereo matching and multi-view stereo. By effectively incorporating monocular priors through our cascaded search and multi-scale depth fusion strategy, our real-time variant RT-MonSter++ also outperforms previous real-time methods by a large margin. As shown in Fig.1, MonSter++ achieves significant improvements over previous methods across eight benchmarks from three tasks -- stereo matching, real-time stereo matching, and multi-view stereo, demonstrating the strong generality of our framework. Besides high accuracy, MonSter++ also demonstrates superior zero-shot generalization capability. We will release both the large and the real-time models to facilitate their use by the open-source community.
Extension of indoor mmW link radio coverage in non line-of-sight conditions
Venue: arXiv cs.NI 2025
Year: 2025

In future wireless communication systems, millimeter waves (mmWaves) will play an important role in meeting high data rates. However, due to their short wavelengths, these mmWaves present high propagation losses and are highly attenuated by blocking. In this chapter, we seek to increase the indoor radio coverage at 60 GHz in non line-of-sight (NLOS) environments. Firstly, a metallic passive reflector is used in an L-shaped corridor. Secondly, an array of grooved metallic antennas of size 20 cm x 20 cm (corresponding to 80 grooves) is used in a T-shaped corridor. Next, the study focuses on the blockage losses caused by the human body. The results obtained in these different configurations show that it is possible to use beamforming to exploit a reflected path when the direct path is blocked.
Learnable Sparsification of Die-to-Die Communication via Spike-Based Encoding
Venue: arXiv cs.AR 2025
Year: 2025

Efficient communication is central to both biological and artificial intelligence (AI) systems. In biological brains, the challenge of long-range communication across regions is addressed through sparse, spike-based signaling, minimizing energy and latency. Conversely, modern AI workloads are increasingly constrained by bandwidth, leading to bottlenecks that hamper scalability and efficiency. Inspired by the brain's ability to execute dynamic and complex local computations coupled with sparse inter-neuron communication, we propose heterogeneous neural networks that combine spiking neural networks (SNNs) and artificial neural networks (ANNs) at bandwidth-limited regions, such as chip boundaries, where spike-based communication reduces data transfer overhead. Within each chip, dense ANN computations maintain high throughput, accuracy, and robustness. While SNNs have struggled to algorithmically scale, our approach surmounts this long-standing challenge through algorithm-architecture co-design where learnable sparsity is employed for die-to-die communication by confining spiking layers to specific partitions. This composable design combines high ANN performance with low-bandwidth SNN efficiency. Evaluations on language processing and computer vision exhibit up to 5.3x energy efficiency gains and 15.2x latency reductions, surpassing both purely spiking and non-spiking models. As model size grows, improvements scale accordingly. By targeting the inter-chip communication bottleneck with biologically inspired methods, this approach presents a promising path to more efficient AI systems.
Knowledge Graph-based Retrieval-Augmented Generation for Schema Matching
Venue: arXiv cs.DB 2025
Year: 2025

Traditional similarity-based schema matching methods are incapable of resolving semantic ambiguities and conflicts in domain-specific complex mapping scenarios due to missing commonsense and domain-specific knowledge. The hallucination problem of large language models (LLMs) also makes it challenging for LLM-based schema matching to address the above issues. Therefore, we propose a Knowledge Graph-based Retrieval-Augmented Generation model for Schema Matching, referred to as the KG-RAG4SM. In particular, KG-RAG4SM introduces novel vector-based, graph traversal-based, and query-based graph retrievals, as well as a hybrid approach and ranking schemes that identify the most relevant subgraphs from external large knowledge graphs (KGs). We showcase that KG-based retrieval-augmented LLMs are capable of generating more accurate results for complex matching cases without any re-training. Our experimental results show that KG-RAG4SM outperforms the LLM-based state-of-the-art (SOTA) methods (e.g., Jellyfish-8B) by 35.89% and 30.50% in terms of precision and F1 score on the MIMIC dataset, respectively; KG-RAG4SM with GPT-4o-mini outperforms the pre-trained language model (PLM)-based SOTA methods (e.g., SMAT) by 69.20% and 21.97% in terms of precision and F1 score on the Synthea dataset, respectively. The results also demonstrate that our approach is more efficient in end-to-end schema matching, and scales to retrieve from large KGs. Our case studies on the dataset from the real-world schema matching scenario exhibit that the hallucination problem of LLMs for schema matching is well mitigated by our solution.
$\texttt{InfoHier}$: Hierarchical Information Extraction via Encoding and Embedding
Venue: arXiv cs.IR 2025
Year: 2025

Analyzing large-scale datasets, especially involving complex and high-dimensional data like images, is particularly challenging. While self-supervised learning (SSL) has proven effective for learning representations from unlabelled data, it typically focuses on flat, non-hierarchical structures, missing the multi-level relationships present in many real-world datasets. Hierarchical clustering (HC) can uncover these relationships by organizing data into a tree-like structure, but it often relies on rigid similarity metrics that struggle to capture the complexity of diverse data types. To address these we envision $\texttt{InfoHier}$, a framework that combines SSL with HC to jointly learn robust latent representations and hierarchical structures. This approach leverages SSL to provide adaptive representations, enhancing HC's ability to capture complex patterns. Simultaneously, it integrates HC loss to refine SSL training, resulting in representations that are more attuned to the underlying information hierarchy. $\texttt{InfoHier}$ has the potential to improve the expressiveness and performance of both clustering and representation learning, offering significant benefits for data analysis, management, and information retrieval.

Venue: arXiv cs.CR 2025
Year: 2025

Email phishing remains a prevalent cyber threat, targeting victims to extract sensitive information or deploy malicious software. This paper explores the integration of open-source intelligence (OSINT) tools and machine learning (ML) models to enhance phishing detection across multilingual datasets. Using Nmap and theHarvester, this study extracted 17 features, including domain names, IP addresses, and open ports, to improve detection accuracy. Multilingual email datasets, including English and Arabic, were analyzed to address the limitations of ML models trained predominantly on English data. Experiments with five classification algorithms: Decision Tree, Random Forest, Support Vector Machine, XGBoost, and Multinomial Naïve Bayes. It revealed that Random Forest achieved the highest performance, with an accuracy of 97.37% for both English and Arabic datasets. For OSINT-enhanced datasets, the model demonstrated an improvement in accuracy compared to baseline models without OSINT features. These findings highlight the potential of combining OSINT tools with advanced ML models to detect phishing emails more effectively across diverse languages and contexts. This study contributes an approach to phishing detection by incorporating OSINT features and evaluating their impact on multilingual datasets, addressing a critical gap in cybersecurity research.
